Exciting new Electronic Indie creative Mutant Forest have released their thrilling new single ‘Bound’. The track combined with a captivating lyric video explores pure sensual emotion, broody production and lyrical essence that thrive on an exploration of attraction and hidden personalities.
Mutant Forest is the creative vehicle for Brooklyn based artists Blue and Andrew Maeve. Together they draw from a wide palette of creative interests and impulses which are cleverly incorporated into their imminent release Bound.
“Bound fantasizes an ideal attraction. We’ve both had a lot of dating experiences where at first we’re swimming in the nre, but as things go deeper the facade begins to crack exposing things that were hidden or that we’d chosen to ignore,” explains Andrew. “Bound imagines someone that strikes that perfect balance of allure and intrigue”. On writing the track, Andrew recalls “I’m always searching for sounds that trigger a deep emotional resonance. At some point this broody bouncing bassline and beat came together and I could feel my whole-body tingling. I take that as a signal from my subconscious that this sound captures something I’ve experienced that only music can articulate.”
Mutant Forests language is communicated through music, new media design, and dance, merging to weave others into immersive experiences. These inclinations started to take shape when they were invited to present a series of work at the Museum of Arts and History in Santa Cruz, CA. The first project was a sound print machine using cymatics and marbling paint to capture unique sound patterns. Later they shared a piece that used EEG to detect guests’ brainwaves and transduce them to corresponding sounds and colors.
This is just the start for Mutant Forest. With their clinically clear vision and a thrivingly dark aesthetic the journey ahead for the creative will be as bold as the statement they are currently making.
